this is not philanthropy, charity or whatever good name you want to call it. you and your guys are opportunists. nothing wrong with being an opportunist. yours is just the nigerian politician’s playbook. maybe no one in the comments has the balls to call it out, but we need to stop normalizing stuff like this
It’s applauding that he was honest. If I ask you that question, chances are I’m moving quickly. If you lied that you have got it and I ask you to send a copy of your passport page and it takes you 2 weeks, you’d have broken my trust and have shown no integrity, everything ends.
Do you know what everybody seems to be missing?
If he uses the inheritance his father left him to pay off his sisters' $300,000 in student loans, he would not only be disregarding his father's explicit wish that they never benefit from his wealth, he would also be participating in the very betrayal that led to their exclusion from the will.
That is, to me, a betrayal of the dead.
His sisters sided with their mother while she was cheating on their father. They saw nothing morally wrong with what she had done. Their father lived and died with that disappointment.
His response was to ensure that the daughters who supported that betrayal would never share in the wealth he had built through his own labour. He left everything to his son, entrusting him not only with assets, but with the responsibility of preserving that final decision.
If the son truly believes his father was wronged, then he must also respect the father's chosen consequence for those who enabled that wrong.
To pay off his sisters' debts with money his father intentionally withheld from them would not be an act of generosity. It would amount to overturning his father's final judgment.
In doing so, he would no longer be standing with the man who suffered the injustice. He would be withdrawing his support after his father's death.
That, would make him a participant in the betrayal his father sought to condemn. And it would place him beneath his sisters in moral standing. They betrayed a living man. He would be betraying the dead. That is the deepest form of dishonour a man can descend to.
A father left his son more than $10 million.
He left his two daughters nothing.
Now they’re asking their brother to pay off their $300,000 in student loans.
Caller: “My father left everything to me… his house, his investments, his business. He didn’t give anything to my sisters.”
George Kamel: “He purposefully didn’t leave any money to your sisters?”
Caller: “Yes.”
George Kamel: “And now they’re resentful because they feel like they deserve a portion of this money.”
Caller: “It seems like it.”
Jade Warshaw: “Why did he cut them off?”
Caller: “My mother had an affair. My sisters sided with my mother because they liked the affair partner more. I sided with my father.”
George Kamel: “I think you’re going to be resentful if you give this money. I’d rather them be resentful towards you than you be resentful towards them.”
“There’s no easy answer here.”
“They’re going to hate you.”
Now that we are talking about literature works.
I remembered some of the poems we read.
-Anvil and the hammer
-Piano and drum
-The birches
-Shall I compare thee to a summer day
And more I can’t recall.
They are very great works mehn.

The act itself does not move me, but In a world of 8 billion finding the other person who is the same sort of insane to do with with you is terribly romantic
